Denied Auto delete spam or leechers posts upon ban.

My idea is that, when a spammer or leecher is banned the reported post gets deleted or there posts get deleted. I'm not sure if this would effect forum post count but the only posts that are deleted are from people who are banned under leeching or spamming. This is because they make threads look bad, even if it shows that the staff are active. It's a shame to see these dotted around on most threads on the site.

Sorry is this has been suggested before and denied if so, remove/close.

yeah, I agree with this. It sucks seeing someone post a milestone thread just to have it ruined by a leecher posting "ty for the leak hehexd" as the first post. Not sure why their spam isn't deleted in the first place. Prob too much work e.e

Thats why I suggested that it auto deletes there treads/posts upon the ban that is under spamming/leeching

We have a function like that, it's just that sometimes we ban them for other reasons or not all of their posts were spam so we don't delete everything. At least, that's how it works when I do it.

thats what i mean to be honest.

There is most likely already a Purge Spammer feature, but there are still some

What if, a leecher obviously tries to obtain free services or guides by thinking this is some Nulled.to shitsystem where you only have to post in order to unlock something., but besides his leecher behavior posted an incredible guide on how to properly setup a Gmod server. With automatic deletion, all of his non-leech posts would get removed. If you see someone leech, or his post is incredibly low quality and he's banned, report the post. The post will be deleted within give or take 15 minutes. Problem solved, and no more posts would be unnecessarily removed.

So what you are saying is that if a player is banned you report the post and they remove it???
